SCF Q4 Courses (September - November)

This program is designed for ultra young kids aged 5 to 6 years old! The focus of this program is on the learning and development of these young players rather than on competitions. We believe that helping young children to build the foundational skills is fundamental to foster their love for chess. Here, young kids will be adequately prepared to join the Elementary Level
This class is ideal for teaching complete new comers to the game. At the end of the course, trainees can expect to have a complete overview of the rules of chess, a rudimentary understanding of the strengths and weaknesses of each chess piece, basic checkmating patterns, fundamental tactical motifs and many more. Trainees can also expect to play a complete game of chess with confidence.
This course is ideal for trainees who have just successfully completed our beginner classes. Trainees can expect to strengthen their understanding of basic endgames, checkmates and tactical motifs. They will also progress to slightly more advanced content such as combinations and basic calculation techniques.
In this class, we will continue our focus on building fundamental chess skills that are so crucial at the early stages of learning the game of chess. Trainees can expect to deepen their theoretical endgame knowledge, strengthen their tactical skills and improve their calculation techniques. Trainees shall also be introduced to basic strategical motifs - an equally important component of chess apart from tactics.
In this course, trainees can expect a deep dive into more advanced concepts, such as practical endgames, various middlegame strategies, and strategic motifs. In addition, we will again place a special focus on strengthening tactical skills, solving combinations and calculation techniques using slightly more complex examples.
This training is targeted at trainees who are interested in competing in both casual or serious tournaments. The focus areas include preparation for games, tournament approach, revision of important tactical and strategic motifs, important laws of chess that trainees should be mindful and many others.
